i will, but iām not that great either. however, one of the testers i lined up is very good at 5a, and has a lot of experience (decades) in modding, playing and with a preference for mid- and higher wall throws. it was the folks like thisā¦ like usā¦ and old school folks clawing their old collections out of the closets ācuz of covid and whatnotā¦ that i was shooting to design the throw for. it sounds silly, itās like a fubu (for us by us, to the layperson) yoyo lolā¦
imo, i got the design and throw i was looking for, and i am very happy with it thusfar. i want feedback
from the rest of the folks as well, since they may catch things i wonāt - which would be critical. a lot of the folks i sent it to are/may be better than me, some have very similar tastes, some have WAAAY different tastes, some make yoyosā¦ but, i knew theyād give me straight dope - because i donāt want to drop a turd (yoyo), and, i want yāall to get the straight dopeā¦
i just donāt want to release bst filler

Proto came in!
Rejects great, Regens great. Has a nice and balanced feel for the size. Like powerful but not a rock like some yoyos that size can be. Very very fun and pocketable too. Was nervous about this design because its a different size than anything else Iāve done, but I am super happy with how it came out.

i was happy he was nervous because it meant it was a challenge for both of us 
when i used to work for my grandfather he used to say, āwhen itās too tough for them, itās just right for usā¦ā
yep

Looks great, nice and clean with enough detail if you look for it. The specs are right up my alley too - I love organics that are a little undersized and the weight is bang on.
I shall keep my eyes peeled for your release

Snacks, if anyone should be having a yo-yo come out itās you.
I love the specs, the smooov groove and high wallsā¦ it looks incredible, you and hobby have had a beautiful child together 
I would round the edge off the smooth a touch but I couldnāt design a terd in a tornado.
I have set aside my monies already

also, if there are questions you folks haveā¦ maybe things youād like for us to yry out or something (within reason), weāll do t best we canā¦ we all have different preferencesā¦
so, for example, iāve been using mfd vines latelyā¦ and i burned through one and cracked open anotherā¦ but today, i laced up an airetic regular. i want to see how the slippiness of the nylon is in the gap comparatively

My only question is how to get on the elite FatGuySnacks competition team that will be stealing the title out from underneath YYF next year.
